Brompton Folding Bike Sizing
All Bromptons come with a standard frame size, with bike fit adjusted by seatpost length and handlebar rise (or stem length for G-Line models). Traditional Brompton handlebars are available in low, mid, and high options, allowing you to choose between a more aggressive or relaxed riding position.
G-Line bikes are sized S, M, and L, with seatpost and stem lengths tailored to suit different rider heights. For more details on finding the right fit, see the size tables below.
C Line, P Line & T Line - 16" Wheel - Sizing
You can get your perfect fit on a Traditional 16" wheel Brompton by adjusting the seatpost and choosing a low, mid or high rise handlebar.
Seatpost
The seatpost on a Brompton offers a high level of adjustment so you can get your perfect fit however tall or small you are.
The Standard seatpost is fine for most riders, but those who are a little taller will be better off with an Extended or Telescopic seatpost.
Use your inside leg measurement to determine which seatpost is best for you.
